Kineret Protein Solution Survives Ten Years

Publication date: Available online 10 August 2018Source: Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical AnalysisAuthor(s): Yinghua Peng, Xiaohui WangAbstractProteins are labile and their shelf lives are usually months to few years. Herein we report that human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) solution survives ten years. This provides an interesting case that protein biopharmaceutical aqueous solution could be stored for a decade without losing its quality, which could meet the national security needs for 10 years shelf life of biopharmaceuticals.
